Hi. Doing a spot of Christmas shopping. Mil is quite hard to buy for i really dont want to go for pjs again or handbags but i know she is not a massive fan of smellys etc. She does however love YSL black opium but our budget doesn't really stretch that far.

Does anyone know of a good dupe from somewhere like bodyshop, m&s, next? Happy to pay upto £35. Thanks.

I've ordered from there before and was impressed but i feel like if it's not branded she may just turn her nose up at it. I cam't be sure tbf but it would be a shame to spend money on something that will never be used.

Sure there was a body shop dupe unless that was Tom Ford

You can get her the real thing for £29: The Black Opium Click & Go Perfume Pen. 10% discount if you by it from YSL online but it's also available in store from department stores.

Thank you for your help. The pen looks good. I think black musk by body shop came up when i searched but didnt say for sure if that was it.

Body Shop Black Musk smells exactly the same as Black Opium. L’Oreal own YSL and did until recently own The Body Shop so wouldn’t surprise me if they’re made in the same factory.

Yy to Body Shop Black Musk - it's very similar and it lasts too unlike most of their other fragrances!

Black musk from the Bodyshop or Zara's gardenia are both dupes.

That's swung it. Bodyshop it is. I almost went for the pen but it was 2.5ml of perfume and i couldnt bring myself to buy itm
